hey guys.i have an suv.i had 2 of the newest model kicker l7 15"s ported on a kicker zx2500.1 with stinger battery,big 3,and ohio generator high output alternator.i just sold my subs though and want to get new ones but i want them to be LOUDER than the l7s were.dont care about sound quality.im really interested in getting 2 of the re audio 15" mx subwoofers and putting them in a ported box with 3.75 cubic ft. each sub.i have never heard re so i was wondering if you guys could tell me what difference to expect with these subs vs l7s (in detail please) i will be using the same amp which is rated at nearly 2800 watts.i can get the 2 re subs brand new for 780 shipped.thanks guys

going to sound a hell of a lot better imo.. kickers give me headaches... if you wanna be louder get 2 18's or 4 15's..

 

[4Chris4 10+ year member]

but will the 2 res be louder than the 2 l7s is my main question?

Maybe, maybe not, it's install dependent. Although the MX's aren't geared toward spl iirc.

im sorry, also, would i even be able to get the full power from the amp on the 2 re 15s since the amp is full power at 2 ohm?

 

[4Chris4 10+ year member]

i mean nothing is changing much in the install except putting new subs in the back on the same amp with basically the same box except for round subs

surely there for spl. there rated at 3000 watts a piece

not true home slice. MT is their SPL sub. honestly i would give it a little more airspace too. the way that RE subs are, MX and up in their line, they have alot of displacement.

would sound much better than the kickers for sure.

Go with 2 MT's, would need to double your power but you will say L7 who lol

Not a fan of L7's. They're not that loud, they sound like shit, and can't be reconed.

thought the same way when i heard about Fi, DC, DD, RE(old RE). lol. MT would be perfect, but would add another 2500.1 if you are rolling with 2 MT. but you need a lot of room for the box.

how would the 2 re mx 15's compare to the 2 l7 15's in LOUDNESS

 

[Ronny 10+ year member]

Tough to say.

Same power but a decrease in cone area.. I'm sure the REs are more efficient than the L7s but...

Even Type R's are louder than L7's.

ok so tell me 2 15" subs that will be louder than the 2 l7s on the same amp.
